I appreciate all those scriptures. None of them repudiate the deity of Jesus Christ. I’m not going to go through all of them to explain why, if you want to start with one or two…fine.
Perhaps you might consider the following ─
Paul:
1 Corinthians 8:6 yet for us there is one God, the Father, from whom are all things and for whom we exist, and one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom are all things and through whom we exist.
2 Philippians 8:11 and every tongue confess that...
First of all, please notice Matthew 17:9 because the transfiguration was a 'VISION' and Not a real happening.
God sent pre-human heavenly Jesus to Earth for us. Jesus did Not send himself.
Also, God resurrected the dead Jesus out of hell/biblical grave - Acts 2:27; 3:15; Col. 2:12
Jesus used...
Jesus never promised to return to earth, not once in the New Testament. Jesus said His work was finished here and He was no more in the world.
That means that the return of Christ has to be another Person.
John 14:19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I...
Eloyhim is Not the Tetragrammaton YHWH ( Psalm 83:18 KJV )
I AM is Not a name.
God's spirit (Psalm 104:30) is Not a person. God is Not sending forth a person.
Like our spirit "it" (Ecclesiastes 12:7 B) God's spirit is a neuter "it" -Numbers 11:17,25
KJV English has the Word was God ( Doesn't...
At John 20:17 Jesus says he was ascending to his Father and your Father and to my (Jesus') God and your God.- Jn. 16:28
Even the resurrected ascended-to-heaven Jesus still thinks he has a God over him at Revelation 3:12
God, like the word Lord, is a title (Psalm 110) so doubting Thomas the twin...
The majority of scriptures point in one direction, a few scriptures don't seem to agree.. So I asked myself, how will I ever figure this out? For example so many scriptures explain Jesus and his Father in a father and son relationship.. The overwhelming majority of scriptures do. But a few like...
Oh you want to stick with Scripture only.
Okay.
Did Jesus say 'If you've seen Me, you've seen the Father'?
Yes or no?
If you refuse to answer, you are admitting that your premise is faulty.
No, the Bible does not teach that Jesus is God incarnate. Christianity teaches it.
The Bible teaches that Jesus was a Manifestation of God, not God.
1 Timothy 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels...
The Baha’i Faith teaches a Trinity, and the detailed explanation is in this chapter: 27: THE TRINITY
The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit are one in the sense that they are ‘one in Purpose.’ They work together, but they are separate, not ‘part of God.’
In brief, here is how the Baha’i...
There is no known Hebrew writings found at the time of Exodus to confirm the Biblical claim is accurate. The earliest writings are after ~600 BCE when the Hebrews had sufficient writing to compile the Pentateuch. If Moses existed there is no writings that even mention him at the time Exodus was...
Moses had "direct input" in many senses with God. The Bible aptly says that no one can see God and live -- No human has literally seen God. That is confirmed at Exodus 33:20 that no one can see God's face and live. God was very close with Moses (Exodus 33:20; John 1:18; 1 John4:12) God told...
You can argue if you like that Jesus is God, but that would be in contrast to the direct clear truths stated in Scripture.
Nothing in the Scriptures supports Jesus being God. The verses below explain why Jesus is not God, and why Jesus CANNOT be God.
Jesus claimed to reveal God, Whom He called...
“I and my Father are one” (John 10:30) does not mean that Jesus IS God. It means that whatever pertains to Jesus, all His acts and doings, are identical with the Will of the Father. Jesus and God also share the same Holy Spirit, so in that sense they are one. Jesus also shares some (but not...
